So we've got Wilkin (Club captain), Burns, Roby, LMS etc playing and we need to wheel Wello out because we don't have enough leadership? On that basis he would play until he died?

| I'd go with
Makinson
Dawson
Turner
Jones
Swift
Burns
Wilkin
Walmsley
Robes
Amor
Vea
Greenwood
Lms
Mose
Richards
Thompson
sav/lance
I'm not sure if I'd go with lance on the bench for sav as we need cover for the backs if/when we get a injury. Also not sure how fit robes is.

I think we've got enough power in the forwards to accommodate Lance on the bench, and we could do with him there for the reasons you mention. If I were KC I'd be looking to get an extra 5 minutes per-stint out of Mose, since he's demonstrated at Wakey that he's up to it. That would help to make up for not having a fourth forward on the bench.

Up until the wakey game I don't think mose earned his spot and Id have dropped him.
I noticed KC comment " mose has now started to step up to the plate" so his lack lustre performances haven't gone unoticed pre Wakey.

| I love our pack and seeing Amor back in for this one is a big plus; alongside Roby of course.
I think they still don't know what their best back line is so if we can get on top of Hill and Simms then we can try to put GOB and wheeler/Bridge under pressure. They lack a long kicking game so field position could be crucial.
I'm not sure whether I would move Makinson or Swift to FB as we lose a lot on the wing by playing Dawson. I'd stick with Wellens as there is no other option

You know, I think I'd go for the big bench and play Hohaia #1. It doesn't seem such a wild idea, but yet quite an unlikely choice for KC.

| I'm really not convinced by Lance as a full back. The last time I saw him play there for us he was abysmal. Wellens or Makinson would be better options, IMO.

I can't actually remember a single game him playing there for us. Perhaps its my curiosity influencing my selection.

I'd like Makin to stay on the wing. I think he's perfecting his game there very well and is coming up with some great plays in defence to match his trademark finish. I'd like to say Swift would be a better bet at full back as he's a more dangerous runner (and generally safe under kicks) but he's just got that 1 (or 2) silly, random mistakes per game that hold him back.
